"The former president doesn't stand a chance of changing the court's mind, they didn't listen to him," says Avigdor Feldman.

Convicted rapist and former president Moshe Katsav will not submit a
request for another hearing to appeal his sentence, said his lawyer Avigdor
Feldman Monday.

Speaking at the conference of the Center for Law and Media at Bar Ilan
University, Feldman said that Kastav doesn't stand a chance of changing
the Supreme Court's decision, because the "justices didn't listen to him and decided to embark on a media campaign."

The
lawyer added that the media is only prepared to accept claims that a miscarriage of justice occurred when it concerns a simple man like Roman Zadorov, but not when the defendant is the former president. Katsav began his seven-year prison sentence in early December, still holding tight to his claim of innocence. “One day, the truth
will come out. I don’t know when. It’ll be with or without me,” he said. “I’ve
acted honorably with everyone,” he told reporters outside his Kiryat Malachi home on the day that he was taken to prison.
